Un nuovo studio, pubblicato su Atmospheric Environment, indaga il comportamento del mercurio atmosferico rilevato nell’arco di un anno di raccolta dati presso la stazione di Col Margherita (Belluno).
La ricerca, in collaborazione con Ca’ Foscari e CNR-ISAC, fornirà informazioni preziose relative al ciclo del mercurio (Hg) presente nell’ambiente, soprattutto in ambienti di alta montagna, che risultano essere ottimi scenari per lo studio del mercurio in situazioni non contaminate dall’impronta umana.

Il Gruppo di lavoro Biodiversità del DSSTTA-CNR lancia l'iniziativa delle Biodiversity Masterclasses

Date: 10 marzo, 24 marzo e 7 aprile 2022

Puntata della rubrica di Rainews - FUTURO24  (1 Febbraio 2022)

Intervista a Carlo Barbante, direttore del CNR-ISP e coordinatore del progetto Beyond EPICA Oldest Ice.

In Antartide un gruppo internazionale di scienziati sta cercando di raggiungere il ghiaccio vecchio di 1,5 milioni di anni; fornirà dati su clima e global warming.

The Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation (FPA), Scientific Committee on Antarctic Research (SCAR), and International Arctic Science Committee (IASC) in collaboration with the Oceaographic Institute present The Cold is Getting Hot!

The event will be held in person at the Oceanographic Museum of Monaco and available to watch online through a live stream.

Programme

The Scientific Committee on Oceanic Research (SCOR) Secretariat invites proposals for new working groups to commence activities in late 2022.

SCOR working groups are formed of not more than 10 Full Members and 10 Associate Members, to deliberate on a narrowly focused topic and develop a peer-reviewed publication and/or some other product that will advance the topic on which the working group is focused. The group’s work is intended to be completed in 4 years or less. Instructions, guidelines, and template.

Deadline for submission: 30 April 2022

He obtained a Master's Degree in Computer Engineering from the Polytechnic University of Turin. He serves as a data manager and system administrator for the IT infrastructures of the projects NADC (National Antarctic Data Center) and IADC (Italian Arctic Data Center); he is also involved in the development of software solutions for European research projects such as: POLARIN, ITINERIS, ARICE (Arctic Research Icebreaker Consortium), ENVRI-FAIR, and Beyond EPICA. He manages the institutional websites of the Institute and the Italian Arctic Base "Diribile Italia". He is part of international working groups for the development of the SIOS Data Management System and the INTERACT Data Portal. Thanks to his experience in data management, he helps researchers publish and share the data collected from research, making it compatible with modern standards and adhering to the principles of data FAIRness and Open Science. In 2021, he won the SCADM (Standing Committee on Antarctic Data Management) award for his work at the Polar Data Forum IV.
